The B side features Jordan Zawideh’s reverb-heavy drum machine & synth duet Axolotls, Mark Grusane’s pounding, in-your-face atonal track The Recoil, and finishes with Thomas Xu’s grooving arpeggios on School Street.

Eduardo Polonio – Obra electroacústica 1969-1981 [BUHR191]
Eduardo Polonio (1941–2024) was one of the foundational figures in the emergence and development of electroacoustic music in Spain. The anthology “Eduardo Polonio: Obra electroacústica 1969–1981” revives his legacy with a selection of essential pieces from his early electroacoustic period. The album includes eight compositions created between 1969 and 1981, spanning from Polonio’s early experiments at the Alea Electronic Music Laboratory in Madrid to his later work at the Phonos Laboratory in Barcelona. From the raw electronic textures of “Para una pequeña margarita ronca” (1969) to the timbral subtleties of “Flautas, voces, animales, pájaros…” (1981), this collection showcases Polonio’s artistic evolution and highlights different facets of his work as a composer and musician.

Machinete – Cost to Cost [CM25]
Comprised of raw recordings, spontaneously conducted between 2012 to 2020 in Venice and later in Milan, Machinete are Marco Segato (La Serpiente) and Pietro Giubilato (TLXCO) executing and modulating rough post-industrial beats into pummeling electro structures with a brute sense of nocturnal acid in the air which strives to bring power to its knees.
All revenues from this album will be donated to The Ghassan Abu Sittah Children’s Fund (gascf.org). The fund provides medical assistance to children in critical need and supports the medical sector in Gaza and Lebanon.
